Poul Ruders Polydrama (Manyfold Event) for cello and orchestra, is the last part of a drama trilogy otherwise consisting of Dramaphonia for piano and 11 instruments and Monodrama for percussion and 32 instruments. In this abstract drama, the individual listener is left entirely to his own associations. The composer has compared polydrama with the gradual defoliation of a big tree: the vigorously growing organism is attacked by a swarm of locusts until, finally, nothing remains but bare branches in a landscape of long shadows; a solitary, singing bird remains, however, like a streak of hope in an increasingly dark and pessimistic universe.

'Dramaphonia' for piano solo and 11 instruments forms the first part of a trilogy of solo-concertos, the remaining two being one for percussion and smaller symphony orchestra ('Monodrama') and the last ('Polydrama') for violoncello and full orchestra. All three pieces are in one movement each and may be performed together, thus presenting a vast concerto grosso of the duration of one hour and a half. Each concerto, however, stands by itself, offering its own story: having employed the word drama in all three pieces, I naturally want to imply that something is going on, a series of hidden events created by each listener's own inner theatre which enables him to stage his own, personal associations, and in the case of 'Dramaphonia', the compositorical tension alters between action and frozen panoramas. In the percussion concerto, the rhythmical progression is being constantly intensified, whereas the metric proportions of Dramaphonia tighten and loosen, like a magnifying glass being wielded in and out of focus. 'Dramaphonia' is commissioned and dedicated to LONTANO and Poul Rosenbaum.

Appalachian fiddle music, based on the musical traditions of the people who settled in the mountainous regions of the southeastern United States, is widely-known and played throughout North America and parts of Europe because of its complex rhythms, its catchy melodies, and its often-ancient-sounding stylistic qualities. The authors explore the lives and music of 43 of the classic Appalachian fiddlers who were active during the first half of the 20th century. Some of them were recorded commercially in the 1920s, such as Gid Tanner, Fiddlin? John Carson, and Charlie Bowman. Some were recorded by folklorists from the Library of Congress, such as William Stepp, Emmett Lundy, and Marion Reece. Others were recorded informally by family members and visitors, such as John Salyer, Emma Lee Dickerson, and Manco Sneed. All of them played throughout most of their lives and influenced the growth and stylistic elements of fiddle music in their regions. Each fiddler has been given a chapter with a biography, several tune transcriptions, and tune histories. To show the richness of the music, the authors make a special effort to show the musical elements in detail, but also acknowledge that nothing can take the place of listening. Many of the classic recordings used in this book can be found on the web, allowing you to hear and read the music together.

Dieses Buch konzentriert sich auf die Musik von Schonbergs Moses und Aron; es stellt damit den Versuch dar, eine Lucke im Schrifttum uber die Oper, das zumeist nur das Libretto und dessen philosophisch-religiose Ausrichtung behandelt, zu schliessen. Thematisiert werden die Tonhohenorganisation, die formale Disposition sowie deren Bedeutung fur das Musikdrama (z.B. Modifikation der Leitmotivtechnik, Verhaltnis zwischen musikalischer Form und formaler Anlage des Librettos).Der erste Teil gibt einen Uberblick uber die methodischen Verfahrensweisen der Arbeit und die kompositionstechnischen Voraussetzungen ihres Gegenstandes, fasst aber zugleich die Ergebnisse zusammen, zu denen der zweite Teil in detaillierten Einzelanalysen gelangt. Im Vordergrund steht die Erkenntnis der konstruktiven Prinzipien der Zwolftonkomposition in Vertikale und Horizontale, wobei bislang unerkannte Kompositionstechniken Schonbergs gezeigt werden konnen.Die Darstellungsform will Ergebnisse der amerikanischen Musikforschung in das hierzulande gangige Repertoire der Zwolftonanalyse einfuhren; die Durchleuchtung des gesamten Tonsatzes ergibt eine umfassende Beispielsammlung zu Schonbergs Komposition mit zwolf nur aufeinander bezogenen Tonen.

Jozef (Jef) Schampaert's 1952 Dramatische Fantaisie (Fantaisie Dramatique) for trombone and piano, dedicated to trombone professor Peter Roupcinsky, was written as a concours piece for the Royal Conservatoire Antwerp in Belgium. While the rest of the Belgian school was experimenting with a return to lush romanticism (Alpaerts, Maes, and the musical progeny of Benoit), or beginning to prod the tonal bounds of listenable 12-tone and serialism (Constant and Verbesselt), Schampaert took towards a different sound: that of the Impressionists, transmuted through his distinctly Flemish touch.
